Hi all,

The electrical network in my house (Antwerp, BE) is quite old and consists of two phases of about 140 volts. This gives me approximately 240 volts at the socket. Earth cable connected.

So the Fluke 6500 tester gives two errors: 77 that there is no ground. And I can see the second error after holding the start button for a few seconds, it's 71 - which means the neutral line has high voltage. Because the device does not pass its "self-control", other functions and menu access do not work.

As I understand it, I need to somehow change the network settings in the tester. How do you do that? Or such a device does not apply to my electrical network?

Thanks,
